The Joy of the Moment



The time just flows past as the water of the countless streams
The memories of the present becomes a past in just a moment
The plans for the future are as uncertain as a waterfall descent
The life in the present moment is all that one can be conscious

The reminiscences of the past is just that a part of history
The thoughts of the future is just that an unknown mystery
The life in the present can be lived with conscious mastery
The life in hindsight doing the right thing lends itself to harmony

It just requires discipline on every facet of our human existence
It may seem difficult to face up to reality given our human frailty
It may seem impossible since we have diverse roles and needs
It may seem odd to give up desires that we have learned to feed

If we introspect in the current moment, we will realize the eternal truth
There is nothing of the past and the future and we all tread the same route
If we remain fully conscious in every moment we are completely attentive
There will be no regrets nor suffering and actions will be completely effective!
